题文

In modern society, people use money every day. It seems that it is very important in our life. That’s because without money you can’t buy any goods(商品) you want. But I think few people know the history of money.
Long ago, people did not need money. They lived on wild animals, fruits and other plants. As time passed, people learned to raise animals and crops. Sometimes, families produced more than they needed, so they started to trade with other families. Later, people began to use money as a means of exchange. However, it was not the kind of money we use today. They used shells, rice, salt, large stones, etc.
During the 600s BC, people began using coins as money. They soon found that coins were easier to carry than goods and lasted a long time. Later, countries began to make their own coins.
The Chinese were the first to use paper money, probably as early as the 11th century. The Italian traveler Marco Polo saw the Chinese using money when he visited China in the 1200s. However, European countries did not start using paper money until 1600s.
Today, we have many ways to pay for things. We do not use coins or paper money. Often, people prefer to pay for things by card. Paying with a card is easier and safer than carrying around a lot of “real” money.
小题1:  People used ________ as a means of exchange before the 7th century BC.
A. paper money       B. card          
C. large stone         D. coins
小题2:From the passage, we know that European countries used paper money in the ________.

B.Chinese used paper money earlier than Italy.
C.Today people often prefer to pay for things by salt.
D.Carrying around much “real” money is easier and safer than Paying with a card.

小题3:B


试题分析:本文讲述了钱的发展史。钱的出现伴随着交易的进行。有很多东西曾经作为交换的货币使用过。如贝壳、大米、盐、大石头等。后来用硬币、纸币。今天我们更喜欢用信用卡消费,因为它携带起来更方便和安全。
小题1:细节理解题。根据During the 600s BC, people began using coins as money. They soon found that coins were easier to carry than goods and lasted a long time.可知,在公元7世纪,人们开始用硬币当钱用。他们发现硬币比货物更容易携带,保持的时间长。large stone属于a kind of goods。纸币最早在中国的11th century被使用;用信用卡是许多人的事。故选C。
小题2:细节理解题。根据However, European countries did not start using paper money until 1600s.可知,欧洲国家直到17th century才开始用纸币。故选D。
小题3:推理判断题。根据The Italian traveler Marco Polo saw the Chinese using money…可知,马可波罗是意大利旅行家,所以A错;根据The Italian traveler Marco Polo saw the Chinese using money when he visited China in the 1200s.可知,意大利旅行家在13th世纪来访中国时看到中国人在用纸币,所以B对;用盐交换物品是物物交换时代,现代的人用纸币、更喜欢用信用卡,所以C对;根据Paying with a card is easier and safer than carrying around a lot of “real” money可知,现代信用卡比代大量的真钱更安全和容易,所以D错。本题要求选出正确的陈述,故选B。

据专家权威分析,试题“In modern society, people use money every day. It seems tha..”主要考查你对  历史文化类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下:

历史文化类阅读

考点名称:历史文化类阅读

  • 历史文化类阅读:
    本类题型常用的方式是夹叙夹议。叙述的目的是为了议,所以要把握其议才是主要方面。
    阅读这类文章,先弄清其引入的话题,再弄清里面人物对其不同的看法,然后理解作者本身对话题的观点看法或思考。

  • 初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧:
    一、要注意养成良好的阅读心理,阅读时要去掉杂念,心绪要安定,精神要专一,要形成一种惬意的顺向心理。
    切不可一遇到几个生词难句,就心烦意乱,失去自控能力。心理学家告诉我们,任何恐慌,过分紧张的情绪都会形成一种消极因素妨碍大脑的正常思维功能。
    因此,遇到困难一定要从容不迫,心无旁骛。这样才能对所读的文章印象清晰,理解深刻。

    二、要提高视读的速度,考阅读理解,从另一个方面来说,考的是考试速度。因此做阅读理解时,要注意培养自己快速阅读的习惯。
    切不可在个别难懂的词句上磨蹭,只要全篇理解了,个别难懂的词句可以根据上下文和构词法去猜测,去推断。

    三、对文章的评价分析,一定要坚持“词不离句,句不离篇”,要理解文章作者的原意,而不能按你自己的意愿去想当然。
    切记:一想当然,就会出错。
